Need help v.s. Eldar pyskers

[Tigrinus]

I was recently playing against an Eldar player in a 1500 pt match.

Long story short, I kicked the stuffing out of him. It was, however, a close match for the first few turns, owing to his two Farseers.

Now my question is this: can a Farseer use his psychic powers while inside a transport vehicle? I looked it up in the BRB, and couldn't find anything that says they can't.

I know that this isn't an Eldar forum, but does anyone know about the particulars?

First page of the main rulebook FAQ has the answer you seek. Top right of the page. This is a further extrapolation of the rule on page 66 of the main rulebook which already covers how this works.

 

Hope that helps :P

There is no reason that you cannot use a psychic power while in a transport.

 

There are limitations, though, such as needing a fire point for powers with LOS. However, most eldar powers do not require LOS.

 

And before you ask you measure range for the powers from the vehicles hull. ;)

Though I am a big promoter of the, build a man a fire, he'll be warm for a day, set the man on fire, he'll be warm for the rest of his life approach^^

Right, but it sounds like he is not an eldar player and probably doesn't have the eldar codex. sothe BRB will only get someone so far because eldar powers have quite a few differences from base powers.

 

Besides, to each his own. You answer them how you want to and I will answer them how I want to. :P

Neither do I(own the eldar codex), but what he was asking was literally answered in the 2 sections I mentioned, in this case, the BRB and FAQ take you all the way and even drop your luggage in your room^^

 

I am all for spelling out the harder issues though and well, I can't stop you from answering the way you want(nor would I want to) :)

I hadn't thought to look in the BRB FAQ until it was mentioned. And yes, I am also an Eldar player and do own their codex, but it didn't say anywhere in there that Farseers could or could not use powers while in a transport. Just said that they don't have to have a line of sight for some of them. I presumed that this meant that my Eldar opponent in the mentioned battle could, in fact, use his powers. The shooting powers, on the other hand, do require LOS, and since Eldar transports don't have any fire points, those can't be used. I just wanted clarification, for my own benefit! :)
